Brian Walker has since sued for injury to his feelings and breach of contract, which the Scout Association will reportedly contest

But Walker - a Scouts member for more than half a decade - said her "outward appearance is enough to frighten children and animals".

Following this he was expelled last March for breaching the movement's values of integrity, respect, car and co-operation and could bring the Scouts into disrepute, the newspaper reports.

The ex-SAS and armed forces man said that, as a father of disabled children, he understood the point of inclusivity and would have no problem working in a Scout group with Muslim or LGBT children.

In an appeal hearing last year Walker, from Bristol, said “I did not mean to offend anyone personally, but was making a wider point about the values of Scouting”.

He is taking legal action for discrimination against him, which the Scout Association will reportedly contest.

A spokesman for the Scout Association said: “We are aware of the issues raised with us by Mr Walker. However due to legal reasons we are unable to comment specifically on this case.

“Inclusivity is at the heart of modern scouting and is a value we hold dear. We welcome young people and volunteers from all communities across the UK and we are proud of our inclusive approach to youth work."

Mr Walker said "over recent years, I have been concerned that the movement has increasingly promoted Islam above Christianity".

He added: "I am raising this case as I believe the fundamental values of Scouting are being undermined. Parents need to be made aware of what is happening at the centre of Scouting, and will eventually flow out into the local groups.

"We need to act now to maintain and protect the values on which the movement was based.”

Andrea Williams, chief executive of the Christian Legal Centre, backing Walker, said: “Scouting used to be about doing our best, doing our duty to God, serving the Queen, helping others and keeping the Scout law. It would seem that the culture this created has ceased and the scouting movement has become another great movement infiltrated and ruined by the new political dogma that cannot stand any whiff of dissent."
